Director Park Chan-wook discusses the production of his NYFF60 Main Slate selection, Decision to Leave, as well as the romanticism of his films and how implementing comedic elements is always a top priority, with critic Farran Smith Nehme. Three decades into his feature filmmaking career, cult-favorite Korean filmmaker Park Chan-wook—recipient of the Best Director award at this year’s Cannes Film Festival—makes his NYFF debut with Decision to Leave, an intricate Hitchcockian epic that both draws on familiar genres like the crime thriller and the melodrama and takes them in entirely new formal and psychological directions. We are excited to welcome Park for a deep-dive conversation delving into his long and acclaimed career, his affinity for genre filmmaking, his artistic influences and inspirations, and the making of his latest feature. NYFF Talks are presented by HBO. Deep Focus: Park Chan-wook was sponsored by Vulture.
